Reinforcement response prediction of composite‐concrete beams with crack patterns and deep learning

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 31, Page 6638-6655, 29 December 2025.
Abstract Using fiber‐reinforced polymer reinforcement in concrete (FRP‐concrete) to form composite‐concrete structures is increasingly important in civil and infrastructure applications because of its high strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. However, one of the main challenges of the FRP‐concrete structure is the brittle failure mode, which

Static, dynamic and creep behaviour of a full-scale GFRP-SFRSCC hybrid footbridge [PDF]

, 2014
A three-year research project (Pontalumis) was carried out for the development of an innovative simply supported hybrid footbridge, with 11 m of length and 2 m of width. The footbridge is composed of two pultruded I-shaped glass fibre reinforced polymer (

Steel–Mortar and Flexural Mortar–Mortar Bond Strengths of Metakaolin‐Based Geopolymer

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2025.
Metakaolin‐based geopolymer mortar demonstrated significantly higher interfacial bond strength than cement mortar across both mortar–mortar and steel–mortar testing, with performance influenced by interface transition zone (ITZ) roughness and curing age.

Effect of GFRP rebars and polypropylene fibers on flexural strength in high-performance concrete beams with glass powder and microsilica

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
Considering the benefits of GFRP rebars and their lighter weight compared to steel rebars and the sustainability of polypropylene fibers, GFRP rebars and polypropylene fibers are investigated as sustainable materials replacements for steel rebars in high-

A Review of Corrosion and Protection of Steel in Concrete [PDF]

, 2018
Corrosion of reinforcement is one of the major durability challenges which leads to a reduction in the design life of reinforced concrete. Due to an increasing demand for longer service lives of infrastructure (typically 100-120 years) and the high cost ...

Short‐length mechanical bond anchorage for reinforcement bars made of FRP: Experimental and numerical investigations

Structural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 821-836, February 2025.
Abstract The availability of fiber‐reinforced polymers (FRP) as an alternative for conventional steel reinforcement in concrete construction is increasing. To widen the scope of application, for example, in the case of prestressing, and to improve the bond behavior at the bar ends, end anchorages need to be considered.

FE modelling of bond interaction of FRP bars to concrete [PDF]

, 2006
In this paper a computational modelling approach is used to investigate the bond behaviour of fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) bars in concrete. Two finite element packages (ANSYS and ABAQUS) are used to model the bond interaction of FRP reinforcing bars ...

Poststrengthening Remote Monitoring in Practice: A Case Study of RC Structure Renovation

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are widespread globally, requiring systematic monitoring and proactive maintenance due to ageing, evolving demands and environmental exposure. Prolonging the service life of existing RC structures to meet modern requirements promotes sustainability by reducing waste, conserving resources and minimising environmental ...
